OW! And YAY!
 

:D Two major victories to share, which will hopefully pull me out of my little funk.

First, last night I went running outside for the first time in awhile b/c it's been so hot, I've just been doing the treadmill in my basement for the past month or so. Anyway, I only had time for a quick 1/2 hour run last night so I just ran over to the horse track near my house. That's where I started running outside b/c it's pretty hidden and I didn't want anyone to see how awful I was at it. :p Anyway, when I started over there awhile ago, I couldn't even manage 1/2 a lap and it felt like it was going to kill me!!! Last night I did THREE FULL AND COMPLETE LAPS without stopping to walk or anything!!!! :carrot::carrot::carrot::carrot: YAY ME!!! And the best thing is, it didn't feel like it was going to kill me...even with how hot out it was. I came home dripping in sweat but it felt awesome.

Though this brings me to the ow part...I hurt this am. My whole body is sore now. LOL I guess that's a good thing.

And now for my YAY part!! I hit 115 this am!! FINALLY!!! Ugh, these last few pounds have been such a long time coming. Course, I'm cheating a bit again so it's my own fault. :o 115 was my initial goal weight, until I started realizing my calves aren't shrinking at the rate I need them to in order to fit into my knee high boots.:o So, I'm at my first goal!!! This feels weird. :D But awesome!!!:D

way to go! :D

Thanks everyone. LOL, I was feeling pretty strong tonight after my big run last night so decided to go for a nice long bike ride. Half way up the first slight hill I was spent...I had to actually stop and walk. Ugh. It ended up being more a short ride on flat terrian. LOL, better luck next time.
